tests indicated on page 2 in order to satisfy themselves that the supplied materials are satisfactory.
The standard Report Form to be included with the scripts is given on pages 3 and 4. Please detatch and
enclose it with the scripts. If scripts are to despatched in more than one envelope, it is essential that a copy
of the Supervisor’s Results and of the Report Form are sent inside each envelope.
More material may be issued if required, without penalty, but this should not be necessary. Safety
spectacles may be provided if considered necessary.
Supervisors are advised to remind candidates that all substances in the examination should be treated with
caution. Please also see under ‘General Apparatus’ on the use of pipette fillers and safety goggles.
In accordance with COSHH (Control of Substances Hazardous to Health) Regulations, operative in the UK,
a hazard appraisal of the examination has been carried out.
Attention is drawn, in particular, to certain materials used in the examination. The following codes are used
where relevant
C = corrosive substance
F = highly flammable substance
H = harmful or irritating substance
O = oxidising substance
T = toxic substance
Hazard data sheets should be available from your suppliers.
